Bloody Battle Song had obviously been sneaked in. Otherwise, how could it have been installed 350,000 times the moment it was released?
Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with shock.
What exactly was Director Lin's background?
Previously, Director Lin had said that she could get a recommendation spot in Shenhua's application store. That was why she had led everyone to change the game into a mobile version.
Everyone had thought that it would just be an unimportant recommendation spot or that it would stay on the homepage for a week or two at most.
Now, it seemed like everyone was completely wrong!
Wang Xiaobin looked in the direction of Director Lin's office and sighed. "What kind of monsters are Tengda's employees …"
Wang Xiaobin had worked at Shang Yang Games for so many years and felt quite good about himself.
It was mainly because he was in a small place like Jingzhou. His horizons were limited.
Wang Xiaobin thought that it was good enough for him to be the main system designer for a web-based game that could make money, right?
However, after Tengda acquired Shang Yang Games, Wang Xiaobin had lost count of how many times his worldview had crumbled.
They had casually invested five million yuan in development funds, casually spent a few million yuan to hire Hong Kong celebrities to advertise, and casually obtained so many recommendation spots in Shenhua's application store …
These were things that Wang Xiaobin had not even dared to think about before.
Apart from 'awesome', he had no other words.
…
Soon, the game's details page in the application store was filled with gamers' comments.
Many mobile and web-based games' forums and gamers' groups were also discussing the game.
"Eh? Isn't this Zha Zhuti's game? "
"Why did Zha Zhuti release the game? It's awesome. What's more, it's in such an eye-catching position. This company is really rich! "
"Logically speaking, it's normal for a traditional web-based game to earn a lot of money with such advertisements, right?"
"Not necessarily. This game doesn't seem to have paywalls."
"Paywalls for web-based games? Are you kidding me? "
"Who knows? I heard it from others. I thought the mini-client was too big, so I didn't download it. "
"You can download it and play it on your mobile phone. I have nothing to do on my way to work anyway."
After Bloody Battle Song was released on Shenhua's application store, the number of downloads increased rapidly!
On one hand, it was because the game had changed from a web-based game to a mobile game, and the entire market environment had changed drastically. On the other hand, it was because of the long period of advertising that had been accumulating popularity, and finally achieved a qualitative effect.
Bloody Battle Song was originally a mini-client. Compared to traditional web-based games, it could not be opened and played immediately. Compared to traditional client-side games, its graphics quality and maneuverability were much worse.
In addition to the problem of charging fees, the limited number of players made it impossible for them to make a profit.
Thus, even though Bloody Battle Song: The Powerful Version advertised a lot on the internet, it had little effect.
This was because the conversion rate of the micro-client model was too low.
If players clicked on another web-based game by mistake, a page would pop up and they would enter the game. Once they clicked on it, they would start playing.
If he had nothing better to do, he might continue playing.
On the other hand, Bloody Battle Song: The Powerful Version was completely different. Players clicked on the advertisement by mistake and received a 370 megabyte download. Most people immediately closed the download window.
But now, it was completely different on the mobile platform!
At the moment, the more popular mobile games on the market were still traditional card games like Ghost General and Qute Three Kingdoms. Mobile games with more complicated and heavy gameplay were still in development.
Bloody Battle Song's graphics and gameplay were far better than the existing mobile games on the market!
It was like a player who had been defeated in the King of Kings game all year round. Naturally, he realized that there was no one around who could fight.
What's more, after Zhang Zuting's advertisement became popular, many people already had a certain impression of this game.
When they saw this game appear on the application store, gamers who did not have any good mobile games to play were naturally curious.
They could not help but want to download it to see if the advertisement was real. They wanted to see what this game was really like, given how popular the advertisement was.
Once they entered the game, many people who were originally prejudiced against such games would realize that the game was completely different from what they had imagined!
…
In the afternoon …
Lin Wan was in her office, watching the continuously rising figures. She was practically bursting with joy.
It seemed like she had made the right bet by changing the game to a mobile game!
Although she could not tell much in just half a day, one thing was very obvious.
The mobile version of Bloody Battle Song, which was originally in seventh place, had actually climbed up one rank to sixth place!
This was a rather bizarre matter.
That was because the mobile version of Bloody Battle Song was initially in seventh place on the application store. This was fake data that the person-in-charge at Shenhua had made. It was similar to buying Weibo's trending searches.
However, the exact mechanism of the ranking was very different from Weibo's trending searches.
The mobile version of Bloody Battle Song was ranked seventh due to fake data. No matter how much its popularity dropped, it would remain in seventh place. It would not drop.
However, if its data surpassed seventh place, it would continue to rise!
At first, Lin Wan thought that the person-in-charge had made fake data again. However, on further thought, she realized that it did not make sense.
Whether it was the first or the seventh place, they were all directly visible on the leaderboard. With so many recommendation spots, the effect of moving up one more place would not be very good. Did the staff have to redo the fake data?
Lin Wan thought about it and sent a message to the person-in-charge of Shenhua's application store. She asked about the ranking.
Very quickly, the person-in-charge of Shenhua's application store replied.
"Director Lin, those are real data!
"I think it's a little unbelievable, but I've already confirmed it with the technical staff. This game really made it to the top ten in one day!
"That's amazing. I've been in charge of Shenhua's application store for so long and have seen many popular mobile games. However, I've never seen something like this!
"I'll go and open up two more recommendation spots right now!"
Lin Wan could clearly sense that the person-in-charge was overjoyed. She could even feel his happiness through the phone screen.
It was normal when she thought about it.
Boss Yu had forcefully given so many recommendation spots to his sister's game. Of course, the person-in-charge would not dare to say anything, but he would still curse in his heart.
That was because recommendation spots were all money!
Of course, the person-in-charge would not be able to get the money. However, these data were results, and results would affect his performance and bonuses.
Giving so many good recommendation spots to the mobile version of Bloody Battle Song would definitely push out other games and applications.
If the mobile version of Bloody Battle Song did not perform well, the platform would suffer a huge loss if the game continued to grow and the platform grew.
However, now that Bloody Battle Song had become so popular on its first day, the situation was completely different.
The person-in-charge could not wait to give Bloody Battle Song a few more recommendation spots so that it could become as popular as possible!
Seeing the person in charge's reaction, Lin Wan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally felt at ease.
That's great!
All the difficulties and setbacks she had experienced since the development of Bloody Battle Song: The Powerful Version until now had disappeared like smoke in the wind.
Lin Wan felt as if she had finally seen the moon.
She did not let Boss Pei down, and she did not give up on her dreams.
Although she still had a long way to go before she could become a truly outstanding game designer, the success of Bloody Battle Song's mobile version was undoubtedly a good start!
Lin Wan's eyes teared up. At that moment, the person she wanted to thank the most was Boss Pei.
Before she came to Shang Yang Games, she had never thought that she could become a leader of a company, make important decisions, and lead everyone to success.
It was Boss Pei who trusted her and gave her this precious opportunity to prove herself.
Without Boss Pei's encouragement, the mobile version of Bloody Battle Song would not have been as successful as it was today!
At that moment, Lin Wan's cell phone vibrated on the table.
She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Boss Pei.
"Thank you for your hard work during this period. I'll treat all Shang Yang Games employees to dinner on the 20th at the same place."
Lin Wan perked up when she saw this message.
Could it be that Boss Pei already knew about this?
That did not seem possible.
Modifying the mobile version did not require a lot of funds. What's more, Boss Pei had given Lin Wan full responsibility for modifying Bloody Battle Song. She only had to ask for instructions when she encountered problems that she could not solve.
Thus, Lin Wan did not reveal the mobile game to Boss Pei. To her, it was something that she could handle on her own.
Did someone else report this to Boss Pei?
The possibility of this happening was also relatively low. After all, this behavior would not bring about any benefits.
What's more, Boss Pei was busy with work now. He had many things to deal with. He probably did not have the energy to pay attention to Shang Yang Games.
Thus, Boss Pei probably did not know about this good news.
This time, they probably felt that the employees of Shang Yang Games were working hard. Thus, they decided to organize a team-building meal to boost their morale.
In that case, Boss Pei's actions would be even more heartwarming!
Everyone had spent a lot of money, but there were no results. If it were any other leader, they might have already flown into a rage.
However, not only was Boss Pei not angry, but he also tolerated everyone with a tolerant attitude. He even wanted to treat them to a meal to boost morale!
What a touching and good leader.
Lin Wan immediately replied, "Alright, Boss Pei!"
Boss Pei might be busy with work, but he had always placed great importance on Shang Yang Games.
During the development of Bloody Battle Song: The Powerful Version, Boss Pei had contributed a lot to the game's name, gameplay, and publicity.
He wanted to give Boss Pei a huge surprise during the gathering and tell him that Bloody Battle Song had been revived and had turned its losses into profits. He would probably be very happy, right?
